Some songs should never be covered

[Mattman]

I think the problem is not the song that's covered,but the band that's covering it.Knockin on heaven's door,LALD,Mama kin or the TSI songs are amazing,and GNR could rise to their level and give them new life.

? So I think the topic should be "Some bands should never cover songs"

Yeah.  Britney Spears recorded "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" and "I Love Rock 'n' Roll", and I wondered if I was actually in hell.

[Mama Kin]

According to Britney, she covered I Love Rock and Roll because she loves Pat Benetar Yep, you read that correctly.......So there you go, that's why she did that song........

Bohemian Raphsody, that's all I can Say 

[Dave_Rose]

have u heard the New Found Glory covering Aerosmith - I Dont Wanna Miss A Thing, my god that is so bad hurts me to listen I cant believe some would touch such a nice song but they punked it up its like no no no!!

[GNR_Green]

Stereophonics' cover of Hangbags and Gladrags is reason to hate the Sterophonics.  It almost sounds exactly the same except Stereophonics are a crap band with no charisma.

Busted covering Teenage Dreams (or whatever it's called) is also a crime to music.

Never touch Bohemian Rhapsody or Stairway To Heaven because those two songs especially are in a league of their own and you WILL be laughed at. 

Also has anyone heard Wyclef Jean's cover of Another One Bites The Dust by Queen? Awful. He changes a nice catchy song into a song about robbers and murder or something. And he uses bits of Freddie Mercury singing in it. Bastard. And whats worse, Queen put it on their Greatest Hits III album!

[DEAD HORSE]

I dont know ...but I hate Metal bands that covers classics tunes just to make them sound heavier, or stronger.
Its like a fuckin Trend. Like that shitty band  that covers "Take on Me" , just to make it sound like heavy metal and gain fans and put more money in their fuckin pockets , and they are the first ones to criticize Metallica and call em "Sell Outs"  Those fuckheads never will be real and unique!

Yes I have and as I told to Mr. Dead Horse once, that song really screw up the entire CD it really sucks  , I guess the decission to put that song with Wyclef Jean was by Roger Taylor he is always trendy.
